Samurai Pizza Cats: Blast from the Past! is a forthcoming Action role-playing game created by Blast Zero and distributed by Red Dunes Games. Drawing inspiration from the 1990 animated show Samurai Pizza Cats, it is planned for release in 2026 on Windows and leading home gaming platforms.
Development
The title is being crafted by Blast Zero, an independent developer located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. This team, formerly known as Tanuki Creative Studio, previously launched the 2022 beat 'em up game Jitsu Squad.
Unveiled in February 2025 during the 35th anniversary celebration of Samurai Pizza Cats, the game aims for a 2026 debut on Windows and all key consoles. Most of the original English and Japanese voice cast will return, with the exception of "Guido Anchovy," who is now voiced in Japanese by Seiichiro Yamashita, succeeding original actor Jūrōta Kosugi. Additionally, original series scriptwriter Satoru Akahori is involved as script supervisor, maintaining consistency with the franchise’s storyline.
